- | We have opted out of the requirement that all securities listed on Nasdaq be eligible for a direct registration program operated by a registered clearing agency as set forth in Rule 5255(a). Our procedures regarding the issuance of stock certificates comply with Israeli law and practice. According to the Companies Law, a share certificate is defined as a certificate which states the name of the owner registered in the company’s shareholders register, as well as the number of shares he or she owns. In the event that what is registered in the company’s shareholders register conflicts with a share certificate, then the evidentiary value of the shareholder register outweighs the evidentiary value of the share certificate. A shareholder registered in the company’s shareholders register is entitled to receive from the company a certificate evidencing his ownership of the share. |
- | As all members of our Audit Committee meet the independence requirements for compensation committee members set forth in Nasdaq Rule 5605(d)(2), as a foreign private issuer, we have elected, pursuant to Nasdaq Rule 5615(a)(3), to follow Israeli practice, in lieu of compliance with the certain provisions of Nasdaq Rule 5605(d), requiring us to have a separate compensation committee. Accordingly, and consistent with Israeli law allowing an audit committee that satisfies the requirements of the Companies Law regarding the composition of a compensation committee, to carry out all duties and responsibilities of the compensation committee, our Audit Committee has been authorized to assume the functions and responsibilities of a compensation committee. In this respect, we have also opted out the requirement to adopt and file a compensation committee charter as set forth in Rule 5605(d)(1).We have opted out of the requirement for shareholder approval of stock option plans and other equity-based compensation arrangements as set forth in Nasdaq Rule 5635 and Nasdaq Rule 5605(d), respectively. Nevertheless, as required under the Companies Law, special shareholder voting procedures are followed for the approval of equity-based compensation of certain Office Holders or employees who are controlling shareholders or any relative thereof, as well as of our Chief Executive Officer and members of our Board of Directors. Equity-based compensation arrangements with Office Holders (chief executive officer and directors excluded) or employees who are not controlling shareholders or any relative thereof, are approved by our Compensation Committee and our Board of Directors, provided they are consistent with our Compensation Policy, and in special circumstances in deviation therefrom, taking into account certain considerations as set forth in the Companies Law. |
- | We have opted out of the requirement for conducting annual meetings as set forth in Nasdaq Rule 5620(a), which requires Camtek to hold its annual meetings of shareholders within twelve months of the end of a company’s fiscal year end. Instead, Camtek is following home country practice and law in this respect. The Companies Law requires that an annual meeting of shareholders be held every year, and not later than 15 months following the last annual meeting (see in Item 10.B – “Memorandum and Articles - Voting, Shareholders’ Meetings and Resolutions” above). Our 2022 AGM was held on November 10, 2022, therefore our 2023 AGM must be held by December 31, 2023. Further, we have opted out the requirement set under Rule 5620(c) of the Nasdaq Rules which requires the presence of two or more shareholders holding at least 33 1/3%, and in lieu follow our home country practice and Israeli law, according to which the quorum for any shareholders meeting will be the presence of two or more shareholders holding at least 25% of the voting rights in the aggregate - within half an hour from the time set for opening the meeting. |
- | We have chosen to follow our home country practice in lieu of the requirements of Nasdaq Rule 5250(d)(1), relating to an issuer’s furnishing of its annual report to shareholders. Specifically, we file annual reports on Form 20-F, which contain financial statements audited by an independent accounting firm, electronically with the SEC and post a copy on our website. |

The Company’s contracts with its customers include performance obligations to provide its products or to service the installed products. A product sale contract may include an extended warranty (that is, for longer than the twelve-month standard warranty) as well as installation, both of which are considered separate performance obligations. For such arrangements, the Company allocates revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The Company generally determines standalone selling prices based on the prices charged to customers.

A. | Liability for Employee Severance Benefits |
1. | The liability in respect of most of its employees in Israel is discharged by participating in a defined contribution pension plan and making regular deposits with a pension fund or by individual insurance policies. The liability deposited with the pension fund is based on salary components as prescribed in the existing labor agreement. The custody and management of the amounts so deposited are independent of the companies and accordingly such amounts funded (included in expenses on an accrual basis) and related liabilities are not reflected in the balance sheet. |
2. | The liability for severance pay which is not covered by the contribution plan amounted to $1,284 and $1,266 as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. |
3. | Severance pay expenses were $1,903, $1,636, and $1,362 in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. |

Note 18 - Income Taxes (cont’d)
B. | Details regarding the tax environment of the Israeli companies (cont’d) |
(b) | In November 2021, an amendment to the Law of Encouragement of Capital Investment was enacted (the "2021 Amendment"). According to the 2021 Amendment, any future dividend distributed by an entity with tax exempt retained earnings will be deemed to be distributed proportionately from such tax exempt retained earnings. As part of the 2021 Amendment, the Israeli Tax Authorities enacted a temporary rule which reduces the tax rate applicable to the distribution of such tax exempt retained earnings. During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company entered into a tax assessment with the Israeli Tax Authorities for the years 2017-2020. During the tax assessment, the Company reevaluated certain tax positions, due to the 2021 Amendment and the interactions with the tax authorities. As of December 31, 2021, the Company measured the possible negotiation settlement outcomes regarding its tax positions and concluded that it is more-likely-than-not that it will incur tax expenses. The Company recognized a provision for these tax expenses at the expected rate which corresponds with the reduced tax rate of the temporary rule mentioned above. The Company’s Statement of Income for the year ended December 31, 2021 included income tax on earnings of previous years of $5,315. The settlement of the tax assessment finalized in February 2022 will allow the Company to distribute dividends from these earnings in the future with no additional corporate tax liability. |
